We took a little trip yesterday to pay our respects to James and Dolly Madison at Montpelier, the Madison home. It’s a short drive from Front Royal and an amazing place full of history. The foundation has done a beautiful job restoring and recovering the history of the time. “Via interpretation, research, and civic education, Montpelier engages the public with Madison’s most powerful idea: government by the people.” It’s worth a visit. (Click here to see the visit I made there 4 years ago.)

Savannah is one of the teenagers who attend the Wednesday evening art class. She always paints some interesting subjects. The last few weeks she has worked on a “Face Plant”. I kept trying to get her to explain what that is to me and she kept laughing at me. LOL! Nice work Savannah. Love your colors and style. Another student pointed out how this is similar to Salvador Dali’s work. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

The kids started back with class at The Studio yesterday painting an umbrella….so appropriate for yesterday’s storm! They were more interested in getting Lincoln to be in their photo than looking at the camera. LOL Homeschool students classes begin this morning at 11 am. Contact kwalker@kellywalkerstudios.com to get a seat for your young painters.

I recently drove out to The Farm at Clover Hill....a great little a new flower farm offering beautiful cut flowers. You can cut your own or they will cut for you. And the flowers are gorgeous. I am hoping to have a paint class out there soon……maybe when it cools off a little outside. Be sure to check them out and go cut some flowers soon. I got some lovely sunflowers that I created this painting using as reference and also some zinnias that I hope to paint today.
